TSUmom Posted October 26, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 26, 2012 We have now booked our pre and post cruise hotels and we are looking for input on what to see and do. Precruise we are arriving Thurs evening and spending two nights at Courtyard Marriott Miami Beach. We will not be renting a car but will be more than happy to use taxis or buses - we just don't know to where. Not sure exactly where the hotel is on Collins Ave. Any input on how to spend Friday? Post cruise we are doing the Port Everglades excursion and after being dropped off at the airport we will take the Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon hotels shuttle to the hotel so any ideas on what to do in the evening? We have an early (7 am) flight out. Thank you in advance for any responses or ideas:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 26, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I would spend time in South Beach. It is a lot of fun to walk around, including the boardwalk. There are also museums to visit. Places to have lunch and to just browse. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted October 26, 2012 #3 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Across the street from the Hampton Inn is a local strip mall with three sit down dining options (Italian, Chinese and Cuban). A couple of blocks back toward MIA there's the 94th Aero Squadron restaurant - steaks, seafood, etc. Relax by the pool, grab some dinner, and get ready for your ealry flight. Good luck! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From your post, I take it this is an excursion from your ship docked at the Port of Miami that takes you to Fort Lauderdale to see Port Everglades and then back to Miami to Miami International Airport?

TSUmom Posted October 26, 2012 Author #5 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I am not familiar with the "Port Everglades excursion." From your post, I take it this is an excursion from your ship docked at the Port of Miami that takes you to Fort Lauderdale to see Port Everglades and then back to Miami to Miami International Airport? Yes, it is an everglades airboat excursion not Port everglades, sorry I have been reading so much on these boards looking for everglades airboat excursion and keep reading about Port Everglades. NCL takes us to the Everglades for an airboat ride and returns us to the airport (MIA) but since our flight is not out until the next day we booked a hotel near the airport. Sorry for the confusion, I am beginning to confuse myself with information overload. I think I need a vacation, a cruise vacation that is;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
